C16 Losing a man and losing a soldier(part i)

Fifteen days later, the northern troop returned to Earth Dragon City.

"General Situ's presence brings light to my humble dwelling."

"No, no, this general is leading a team to a noble place, and disturbing the General Zhou should be the case."

"General Situ is too courteous, my city is small, I have wronged General Situ, at night I will hold a banquet to welcome the general and wash his body."

"General Zhou is too polite, I will have to trouble you."

"The General Situ is the way to be polite. They've come here, and it's as if we're family. There's no need to be polite, you and I are soldiers, so this is how it should be."

"Alright, then I'll pay a visit to General Zhou in the evening."

"Farewell."

"Goodbye. I'll go back and prepare."

Seeing Zhou Jun leading his team away, Third Uncle asked his nephew, "What do you think about this person?"

"A knife is hidden in a smile, and the heart of a beast with a human's face. It seems like the one who planned to stab us from the back is him. "

"Oh, why are you so sure?" His third uncle had also seen the guards from the other cities before, but he had not seen his nephew being so sure that he was the one who stabbed them in the back.

"Because... He's a hypocrite, I hate hypocrite the most, I get annoyed just by looking at him, and his face is too white, actually whiter than mine, hmph, you want to snatch the position of my 'pretty boy', how can you possibly, you have to smash his face, and let him know why 'flowers are so red'! "

"Thud!" Third Uncle fell to the ground. What kind of reason was this? You call him a bad guy just because you don't like him?

"Young Master, then you must admit that you're not as handsome as him?" The little girl ran over to expose his wound.

"I said he's white. If it's like that, how can he be handsome? "I am a professional from the 'Five Department' who jointly appraised me. The result only gave me one word — 'handsome'!"

"Young Master, what is a" Five Officer "specialist?"

"Oh, just a blind date."

"Isn't that a swindler?"

"Liars are also professionals."

"..."

In the Chinese military tent.

"San-er, you suspect this Zhou Jun? You said that he wouldn't …"

"Don't worry, Third Uncle. If he had some tricks up his sleeve, he wouldn't have brazenly invited everyone over. If something were to happen to him at dinner, he wouldn't have been so foolish."

"Makes sense."

"However, we should still guard against them. Third Uncle brought his trusted aides and marched into the city. The more they shone, the better. I am personally in charge of the army. "

"Hmph, do you think I don't know that you want to be lazy and play tricks?" Hmph, do you think I don't know that you want to be lazy and play tricks? Your Third Uncle has always been cautious with the use of troops, so he definitely knows that if he can't take advantage of this situation, he won't alert the enemy. "

"Third Uncle's words are reasonable. I support him, so I'll go back and sleep." With that said, Gongsun Zaitian was about to run.

"Alright, if you fall asleep, I won't have to knock you out and take you away." Third Uncle sipped his tea and slowly explained his sinister plan.

"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go, okay? "You only know how to bully me. If you have the ability, bully my mother."

"I still understand why you want to pick the soft persimmon."

"..."

In the evening, he would go to the banquet.

"I heard you were in the tent playing around with something. You've been busy the whole afternoon, and you even went to see an old doctor and some veterans?"

"Of course, I have to prepare some tools anyway. I have to deal with it, and besides, if I have the chance to make that Lord Zhou a little uncomfortable, then my mood will be quite wonderful."

"Don't give me any trouble. After all, we were invited to a banquet, so it would be hard to explain ourselves if we cause trouble."

"Alright then, I'll try my best."

Third Uncle could tell that his nephew was dealing with him, so he could only remind him to be more optimistic.

After the time it took for an incense to burn, Situ Qingyun and his men arrived at the city gate.

"Are you Great General Situ?" A person in the shape of a butler stepped forward to welcome them.

"Yes, you are?" Third Uncle reined in the reins.

"This humble one is the steward of the Lord Zhou's residence and is here to welcome the General Situ into the mansion. My master is currently waiting respectfully for you. "Please."

"Wait, the Lord Zhou is a military general, why would they let someone like you, who isn't a military official, welcome them?" Gongsun Ztian was alarmed.

"Oh, my master said that this is a family banquet and it would be more appropriate for this old man to serve it."

"Then let's go! "Lead the way." The General Situ said.

"Wait, do you mind if I make some arrangements?" Gongsun Ztian opened his mouth to stop him.

"Arrangements?" The butler was at a loss.

Within the Mayor's Mansion.

"Lord Zhou, we don't understand. Why did you send a butler to welcome us?"

"If a military official were to receive you, the news of the visit of the General Situ would definitely spread throughout the city. At that time, what do you want to do, sir?"

"Haha, brilliant. Then we'll go arrange it right away..."

"Reporting to my Lord", a Academy Officer ran over with quick steps and approached within five meters of Zhou Jun, bowing his head.

"What's wrong?"

"Reporting to the Lord, General Situ and the rest have entered the city, following the arrangements to be welcomed by Butler Hu, however …. "However..."

"But what?" Zhou Jun was extremely dissatisfied with this Academy Officer.

"However, Great General Situ had a subordinate who was very young, dressed like a general. He suddenly shouted for more than a hundred people, and arranged for the gongs and drums to clear the way, and also let out firecrackers at the city gate as well. Furthermore, he had a group of soldiers shout for Zhou Jun, who was guarding the city, to invite General Situ to a feast.

"Ask for instructions, and I'm asking for instructions! Scram, scram!"

"Pa!"

Zhou Jun smashed the teacup that he had always loved.

"Lord Zhou, since today's matter won't work, let's just avoid this matter. Goodbye."

"Take care, Eunuch. "Bye."

"Situ Qingyun, since you want to play, I'll play with you. Zhou Jun felt an incomparable sense of humiliation. He had always thought that he had always been the kind of person to leave his plans behind, but this miscalculation made him feel that there was something that he could not control, getting closer to him. For a moment he felt that perhaps he should not have been involved this time.

"Open the door and welcome the guests." Zhou Jun did not turn back to shoot. Wealth comes with danger, Zhou Jun firmed his conviction and walked towards the exit.

Outside the Mayor's Mansion.

When Zhou Jun saw that scene, the fake smile on his face completely disappeared, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

"Lord Zhou, I'm sorry. Your subordinates are playing around, but it was just a whim, don't mind them. "Haha" Situ Qingyun cupped his hands towards the incoming Zhou Jun.

"Playing around? The gongs and drums shook the sky, the firecrackers never stopped, it is like a new year. The key is that the two sides of the crowd are welcoming, where the hell did you find this place from, there are so many people, most of the people in Earth Dragon City here to watch the show, but there aren't even that many people? " Zhou Jun was already on the verge of a mental breakdown, and was cursing this Situ fellow to death in his heart.

"A whim? You still have the face to say it was on the spur of the moment, see, there are flyers, and those fancy cars, and those acrobatics. Do you think this is a tour? " Zhou Jun really wanted to curse him, and even more so wanted to curse himself. He was so f * cking despicable, sending them off when he had nothing to do, and he really wanted to set up a feast.

"No, it's been a long time since Earth Dragon City was this lively." Zhou Jun replied Situ Qingyun. The words were beautiful, but his heart was bleeding.

"General Situ, please come in." As he spoke, Zhou Jun turned and gestured towards the manor.

"General Zhou, please." Situ Qingyun also made a gesture to welcome him, while entering together with Zhou Jun. However, due to the difference in level, Zhou Jun moved his body slightly to the back.

"Lord Zhou, you are too kind. You even organized the citizens of Earth Dragon City to receive welcome. Lord Zhou is truly a good person." At this moment, Gongsun Ztian appeared out of nowhere and said.

As the saying goes, one does not expose one's flaws and one does not slap one's face. However, Gongsun Zaitian did not expose anyone's flaws when he scolded. He felt as if he had not scolded anyone; he did not slap anyone's face when he hit them, as if he had not hit anyone.

"Cough cough" Zhou Jun choked, "How can that be? General Situ is a rare guest, of course it's like that."

Zhou Jun's heart at this moment, was like sprinkling salt on it after Ling Chi had died.

Entering the main hall of the mansion, the guests took their seats.

"As we were passing by on the northern side of General Situ, I was invited by this general to show you my respect. I am still very slow in doing so, I have prepared some homemade dishes for the wine, and I hope that you can forgive me."

"What are you saying General Zhou? We have even eaten cold steamed buns on the battlefield, there is no salt, no taste, and we would drink together if we were enemies. General Zhou, please. " Third Uncle raised his wine cup and invited Zhou Jun to have a drink.

"General Situ is truly a tiger general, one of the famous generals of my Soaring Dragon Continent, indeed, his reputation is well-deserved. General Situ, please. "

After three rounds of wine and five dishes.

"General Situ, if you leave my Earth Dragon City, you will be facing Dragon Wolf Mountain Range soon. I wonder if you need this one to help you gather food and military supplies?"

"Really?" When Gongsun Zaitian heard Zhou Jun's words, his eyes lit up. He didn't know how to rip him off, but he was actually asking for it.

"Of course, if you have any needs, I will do my best."

"Give me everything? "I want a lot, but are we a legion of five thousand people?" Gongsun Ztian said with an expression of disbelief.

"But I have a request, I will definitely resolve it."

But in Zhou Jun's heart, he thought, "Hmph, is that too much for just the five thousand of you? 'Such a small matter. I'll let you say that I don't really care about the food, but when it comes to you guys, it will become a talisman of death. "

Then, the General Zhou will prepare five million yuan worth of food, a number of siege equipment, fifty thousand horses, and all kinds of military equipment for us. We will not be too happy if there is too much of it, but we will not be happy if we lose it.

Even his third uncle was twitching his mouth. These things could easily be equipped with a hundred thousand men's horses and horses. This guy really dared to take them. Did he really think that they were 'cheap' wild dishes? How many carriages would he need? Let me tell you, the times have changed. Wild mountain vegetables are now more expensive than pork.
